Steal This Story...LHC Sabotage

Saw this article from the London Telegraph which suggests that the future experiments on the LHC could be sending ripples through time which impact it enough to damage it.

That's a very interesting concept and one that begs to be explored but I would take it one step further. My idea would involve a time traveler trying to sabotage the machine in the past because it screwed up the future (and also helped them invent time travel) but doesn't want to get exposed as it would be met with disbelief and/or renewed efforts to invent time travel. I'd write it from the perspective of a physicist working on the project that keeps encountering setbacks that seem almost too coincidental...
